Chapter 557: Career Planning (Sincere thanks to Alliance Leader ★ Dragon Wolf ★)
A notice posted on the Hogwarts bulletin board made young wizards who were a little confused look forward to a pile of pamphlets, flyers, and notices about various wizarding professions, which read:
Career guidance
During the first week of the summer semester, all fifth-graders must meet with their dean about future employment. The interview time for each student is shown in the table below.
When Professor McGonagall questioned Harry, Harry muttered to his dean that he wanted to be an Auror. Instead of laughing at his dreams, Professor McGonagall patiently told him to become an Auror,.. Certificates, grades must not be lower than 'Good'. In addition, he had to undergo a series of rigorous character and talent tests in the Auror office, and although there was no need for mandatory three-year special training after the Auror reform, because the Auror functions were more detailed due to the change, Harry actually wanted to be a special task force in the four Auror functions, rather than an ordinary security Auror. This requires a new type of combat training within the Aurors.
As for Professor McGonagall's attitude towards Harry Potter, Headmaster Umbridge, who was watching from the sidelines, expressed confusion after interrupting their consultation with her characteristic fake cough: "I'm afraid I don't understand, how you can give Mr. Potter unrealistic hopes-"
"Unrealistic hope?" Professor McGonagall repeated, still refusing to look back at Professor Umbridge, "Harry Potter has scored highly in all of the Defence Against the Dark Arts exams over the years. ”
"I'm so sorry, I have to dispute you, Minerva, you can tell from my note that Harry has a terrible grade in my class......"
"I should have made my meaning clearer," Professor McGonagall said, finally looking back into Umbridge's eyes, "and he got high marks in all the Defence Against the Dark Arts exams arranged by his competent teacher. ”
"I think you'll also find out," Headmaster Umbridge's smile suddenly faded, and now her tone became cold, "the Ministry of Magic is going to investigate the records of those who applied to be Aurors—illegal records. This meant that the boy was the hope of becoming an Auror, just as Dumbledore was hoping to return to the school. ”
"That's a lot of hope. Professor McGonagall said.
"Potter has a record of breaking the law. Umbridge exclaimed.
"All charges against Potter have been clarified. McGonagall's voice was louder than hers.
Professor Umbridge stood up. She was too short to stand up and sit not much different, but her original pretended, fussy demeanor had turned into real resentment, which made her flabby, chubby face look particularly hideous and terrifying.
"There's absolutely no way Potter could be an Auror!"
Professor McGonagall stood up, and her move was a deterrent. She stood with Professor Umbridge and looked much taller.
"Potter," she said, her voice crisp and loud, "I'll help you become an Auror, even if it's the last thing I did! Harry, I have a suggestion for you, you can take Professor Alan Harris's Ancient Magic class next year, I'm sure Headmaster Umbridge won't question Professor Harris's ability to teach his students, right? I think the Harris family is very fair in selecting talents. ”
Umbridge was like a light bulb that suddenly went out. She leaned back in her chair and flipped a page on the clipboard, beginning to write something quickly, a pair of bulging eyes turning from side to side. Professor McGonagall turned to Harry, her nose twitching and her eyes fiery with anger.
Unlike Harry, who has career goals, Alan is very confused about his future career choice.
Climbing to the pinnacle of power in the Ministry of Magic? This also seems to be a low-hanging fruit for the thriving Harris family, and it doesn't make much sense for the family to pave the way for the family, and it doesn't make much sense to become the Minister of Magic or not. And obviously, this position is not very attractive to Allen, but rather a constraint. Maybe Dumbledore was the same, he didn't want to spend all his energy on intriguing political battles, so he turned down the position and let Fudge be elected.
Have you been a professor at Hogwarts, but this teaching profession did not bring Alan a greater sense of accomplishment and joy than studying magic.
So, just stay at home and inherit the Harris family's estate and earn more gold Galleons?
Alan had deliberately set aside a large chunk of his time to read all the employment materials that had been placed there for them to browse, but none of them interested him, and he felt that he really needed to talk to Professor Flitwick.
Alan in the Ravenclaw common room had just dropped a bright pink and orange flyer with the words "Do you think you'd like to work as a Muggle liaison?" LS Certificate: It's more important about your enthusiasm, patience and pleasure!"
Alan knew that Hermione's career direction had been set, and that she would join the Umbrella Company after graduation and be in charge. Penelope, on the other hand, will also control the company's armed forces in the Red Umbrella Division.
"Luna, what do you want to do in the future?" he asked softly, looking over at Luna, who was folding a flyer into the shape of a carrot.
"I'm going to look for the things recorded in the Poet Bean's Tales, like a jumping pot, a fountain of good luck, and so on. Luna turned another flyer into a little hare and used the paper carrot to make it jump around on the table.
"Well, actually, what I want to ask is, Luna, do you have any career that you want to pursue in the future?" Alan was a little speechless, he wanted to ask Luna about her future career plans instead of those story collections...... The other day the girl was obsessed with the floating city in Durmstrang's book of stories, and now she has returned to England and is reading the storybooks that Emily likes to read......
Luna caught the little rabbit, carried its two long ears, and played with its calves with her fingers, and turned her head to look at Alan: "The mysterious affairs department in the report a few days ago sounds quite interesting, my father used to say in "Singing Contrarian" that Connelly Fudge used the mysterious affairs department to develop terrible poisons and secretly drug people with whom he disagreed, but your father denied this. ”
"The work of the burnt Silent Bode, the top secret organization of the Ministry of Magic, is kind of interesting. Actually, I asked my father a few years ago, and no one knows exactly what the Silencers are doing, and their mission is top secret, but what is known is that they have not made any substantial progress or discoveries since their inception. Listening to Luna, Alan found the position quite attractive.
